JWG are pleased to announce a partnership with BMO Capital Markets (BMO) where it will provide BMO access to its AI-powered, natural-language processing change management system — RegDelta.

Ten years after the financial crisis, the financial services industry continues to face a changing and complex landscape, and this is particularly true for capital markets. RegDelta™ has reinvented the bank’s global postal system for managing regulatory change. JWG curates a holistic data set, enriches it via sophisticated data science, and provide SaaS technology to the enterprise via the system. Our clients retain efficient control of obligations, not drown in mountains of paper.

Since MiFID II was introduced in January of this year, JWG analysis has shown that regulators have issued more than 5.4 million sections of addressable text in 2018 alone. This is equivalent to more than a 200% increase in texts for MiFID II, which took three years to produce. Navigating the sheer volume of reg is no longer a job that humans can execute with confidence. RegDelta brings control, accountability and assurance to the huge task of managing regulatory change.

Chris Taves, Chief Operating Officer, Global Capital Markets, BMO, said “This system will enable us to manage the global regulatory challenges that we’re facing in a comprehensive manner. RegDelta will help automate the processes required to identify new obligations and manage the required change efficiently and effectively.”

PJ Di Giammarino, CEO JWG said “We are delighted to welcome BMO to the RegDelta fold. JWG are harnessing the power of an artificial intelligence technique called natural language processing (NLP) to replace manual efforts to map regulators’ changing requirements to business models in an efficient and traceable manner. By implementing industry standards, we are now quickly integrating our proprietary intelligence in a way that our clients control. RegDelta is superior to black box solutions which do not allow for expert configuration to a firms’ control framework.”

JWG was created to give the industry control over the complexity of financial regulation in an era when traditional approaches to managing regulatory change are proving inefficient and creating more confusion and steep fines. Its RegTech solutions give firms the ability to manage regulatory change better, faster, cheaper and safer.
